Grandma’s Sugar Cookies

by on ‎12-17-2014 04:17 PM

My Grandma Ann always made these sugar cookies for me when she knew I was visiting. They are so light & airy, I would eat at least 4 at a time. Making these with Isabella brought back memories.  The picture is of one her last Christmases with us.  My niece Abby made us all scarves & Grandma is proudly sporting hers!  I miss her, but so grateful she's alive in her cookies!


 


My mom found a small note pad with grandma’s handwritten recipes and one of the recipes was her sugar cookies.  I am sharing this family recipe with you so you too may create memories with your loved ones and eat a lot of cookies too.  LOL!


 


Grandma’s Sugar Cookies


Here is the sugar cookie recipe:



  • 4 cups flour   

  • 1 cup powdered sugar    

  • 1 cup granulated sugar       

  • 1 tsp baking powder

  • 1 tsp baking soda          

  • 1 cup butter or margarine

  • 2 eggs

  • 2 tsp vanilla

  • 1 cup oil     

  • Pinch of salt                                      


Mix well. You may have to add 1/2 cup more flour. Put in refrigerator at least 1 hour . Then put in cookie press. For Christmas I'll sprinkle them with red & green sugar before I bake them. Bake @ 350 degrees.
